1. Input
Plug your guitar in here.
Always use a good quality screened guitar lead.

2. Voice

The Voice control changes the preamp voicing, ranging from ultra clean to extremely
overdriven.
 Clean Warm – Classic clean, dynamic
 Clean Bright – 'Boutique', will break up when pushed hard
 Crunch – Classic medium gain overdrive
 Super Crunch – More gain and punch than Crunch
 OD 1 – Hot-rodded Master Volume overdrive
 OD 2 – Mid boosted overdrive
This setting is saved when you store a patch.

3. Gain

The Gain control adjusts the amount of overdrive or distortion. Low settings (counter
clockwise) will deliver a clean sound on the edge of break-up. As the Gain control is
turned clockwise the sound will become more overdriven, moving through beautiful
crunch tones until, at its maximum position, a full distorted tone is achieved. This
setting is saved when you store a patch.

4. Volume

This controls the preamp volume. High levels of volume
will introduce the effect of valve power amp distortion
and compression. This is a global setting and not saved
when storing a patch.

5. ISF
The patented ISF control allows you to choose the exact
tonal signature you prefer. Fully counter clockwise has
a more American characteristic with a tight bottom-end
and more aggressive middle, and fully clockwise has a British characteristic which is
more 'woody' and less aggressive. This leads to a very familiar, musical response.
This setting is saved when you store a patch.

Press this switch to turn the stereo modulation effect on, off, or focus the effect for
editing. This setting is saved when you store a patch.
